Wackedy-wack is all I have to say. This novel is bizarre but in a not all that unpleasant kind of way. Samantha is a bit of a frustrating character but her flaws make her quite the sympathetic character. I don't understand the subtext of this book. I feel like if I sat down and combed through things I could maybe unravel parts of it, because some of the imagery was a little blunt, but I also got the feeling while reading that you're not really supposed to "get it". The story is reminiscent of an Alice in Wonderland kind of free fall into candy-colored chaos. It's definitely an engaging read, just because you don't know what the f*ck is going on, but then you also don't know what the f*ck is going to happen.
Wholly bizarre, mildly frustrating, gratifyingly grizzly.
Strange and kind of fun.
